Veterans Strengthening America
|
The American Legion was chartered by Congress in 1919 as a patriotic veterans organization focusing on service to veterans, servicemembers and communities. The Legion evolved from a group of war-weary World War I veterans into one of the most influential nonprofit groups in the United States. Membership swiftly grew to over 1 million, and local posts sprang up across the country. Today, membership stands at nearly 2 million in more than 13,000 posts worldwide.
Our proud group of Legionnaires support US veterans that placed the needs of our country before their own. We stand in the gap as an advocate organization to ensure veterans' needs are met. |
